As a newbie to HVLP, I have encountered the following problem...
I am spraying Minwax (water-based) Polycrylic semi-gloss polyurethane.


FYI, polycrylic is not polyurethane. It is acrylic and urethane is *MUCH*
harder and therefore scrarch resistant.


Don't assume that harder means more scratch resistant. And polyurethane
coatings come in a wide range of hardnesses.
